In order to better understand a sound effect configuration method, a system and a related device disclosed by the embodiments of the disclosure, the embodiments of the disclosure will be introduced below in detail.

Referring to FIG. 1, FIG. 1 is a sound effect configuration method according to an embodiment of the disclosure. As illustrated in FIG. 1, the sound effect configuration method includes the following operations.

In S101, responsive to detection of a starting operation for a target application of a mobile terminal is detected, the mobile terminal determines a period for setting sound effect including system time, wherein the target application is configured to control an audio output device.

In the example, a selection operation may be, for example, a touch operation for an application icon of the target application or a voice selection operation. The period for setting sound effect may be, for example, 7 AM to 8 AM, 8 AM to 9:30 AM, 12 AM to 1:30 PM and the like.

In the example, the audio output device may be a sound playing device with an operating system (for example, an Android operating system and an iOS), for example, a wireless loudspeaker, a wired loudspeaker and a vehicle-mounted music playing system.

In S102, the mobile terminal determines a reference parameter of sound effect corresponding to the period for setting sound effect including the system time according to a pre-stored mapping between periods for setting sound effect and parameters of sound effect of the audio output device.

In the example, the reference parameter of sound effect may include, for example, at least one of:

a Compress parameter, an Amp-Type parameter, an EQ_Bass parameter, an EQ_Mid parameter, an EQ_Treble parameter or a Noise_Gate parameter.

In S103, the mobile terminal sends a pre-configuration instruction including the reference parameter of sound effect to the audio output device, wherein the pre-configuration instruction is configured to instruct the audio output device to create an instance of sound effect for an audio stream to be played according to the reference parameter of sound effect, and the instance of sound effect is configured to configure sound effect of the audio stream to be played.

In the example, an audio output module includes an audio data processing chip, an acoustical device such as a loudspeaker and the like. A type of the audio stream may be, for example, a prompt tone, a background sound, a song and a communication sound.

It can be seen that, compared with a solution in the conventional art that a user manually configures a sound effect of the audio output device, the mobile terminal in the embodiment of the disclosure determines the reference parameter of sound effect corresponding to the period for setting sound effect including the system time firstly and sends the pre-configuration instruction including the reference parameter of sound effect to the audio output device, and then the audio output device creates the instance of sound effect for the audio stream to be played according to the reference parameter of sound effect, so that the sound effect of the audio stream to be played of the audio output device may be automatically set without manual setting, thereby improving convenience and intelligence in sound effect setting and improving user experience.

In some embodiments of the disclosure, before the mobile terminal detects the starting operation for the target application of the mobile terminal, the following operations may further be executed.

The mobile terminal sends an acquisition request for parameters of sound effect to the audio output device, and receives an acquisition response sent by the audio output device in response to the acquisition request for the reference parameter of sound effect, wherein the acquisition response comprises a present parameter of sound effect of the audio output device. The mobile terminal determines that the present parameter of sound effect is mismatched with the reference parameter of sound effect, and outputs a prompting message for indicating sound effect abnormity.

In some embodiments of the disclosure, before the mobile terminal detects the starting operation for the target application of the mobile terminal, the following operations may further be executed.

The mobile terminal acquires N audio playing records of the audio output device, wherein the audio playing records comprise playing time of audio streams and parameters of sound effect of the audio streams, N being an integer more than 1. M periods for setting sound effect of the mobile terminal are created according to the playing time of the audio streams in the N audio playing records, M being a positive integer smaller than N. The mobile terminal determines a parameter of sound effect with a longest usage duration or a highest usage frequency or a largest usage number in each period for setting sound effect according to the audio playing records in each of the M periods for setting sound effect. And the mapping between the periods for setting sound effect and the parameters of sound effect is established.

In some embodiments of the disclosure, after the mobile terminal sends the pre-configuration instruction including the reference parameter of sound effect to the audio output device, the following operations may further be executed.

The mobile terminal displays a playing setting interface for the audio output device. When detecting a playing operation for the audio stream to be played on the playing setting interface, the mobile terminal generates a playing control instruction for the audio stream to be played. The playing control instruction is sent to the audio output device, wherein the playing control instruction is configured to instruct the audio output device to configure the sound effect of the audio stream to be played according to the instance of sound effect and play the audio stream to be played.

It can be seen that after receiving the playing control instruction for the audio stream to be played from the mobile terminal, the audio output device configures the sound effect of the audio stream to be played by virtue of the created instance of sound effect and plays the audio stream to be played, thereby avoiding a playing time delay and non-fluency caused by occupation of a kernel resource of the audio output device for sound effect configuration, facilitating to improve playing fluency of the audio output device and improving the user experience.

Referring to FIG. 2, FIG. 2 is a flowchart of another sound effect configuration method according to an embodiment of the disclosure, which is consistent with the embodiment illustrated in FIG. 1. As illustrated in FIG. 2, the sound effect configuration method includes the following operations.

In S201, an audio output device acquires a pre-configuration instruction sent by a mobile terminal, wherein a reference parameter of sound effect in the pre-configuration instruction is determined by the mobile terminal according to a pre-stored mapping between periods for setting sound effect and parameters of sound effect of audio output device after determining a period for setting sound effect including system time, determination of the period for setting sound effect is responsive to detection of a starting operation for a target application of the mobile terminal, and the target application is configured to control the audio output device.

In the example, the reference parameter of sound effect may include, for example, at least one of:

a Compress parameter, an Amp-Type parameter, an EQ_Bass parameter, an EQ_Mid parameter, an EQ_Treble parameter or a Noise_Gate parameter.

In S202, the audio output device creates an instance of sound effect for an audio stream to be played according to the reference parameter of sound effect, wherein the instance of sound effect is configured to configure the audio stream to be played.

In the example, an audio output module includes an audio data processing chip, an acoustical device such as a loudspeaker and the like.

It can be seen that, compared with a solution in the conventional art that a user manually configures a sound effect of the audio output device, the mobile terminal in the embodiment of the disclosure determines the reference parameter of sound effect corresponding to the period for setting sound effect including the system time firstly and sends the pre-configuration instruction including the reference parameter of sound effect to the audio output device, and then the audio output device creates the instance of sound effect for the audio stream to be played according to the reference parameter of sound effect, so that the sound effect of the audio stream to be played of the audio output device may be automatically set without manual setting, thereby improving convenience and intelligence in sound effect setting and improving the user experience.

In some embodiments of the disclosure, after the audio output device creates the instance of sound effect for the audio stream to be played according to the reference parameter of sound effect, the following operations may further be executed.

The audio output device acquires a playing control instruction for the audio stream to be played from the mobile terminal. In response to the playing control instruction, the audio output device configures a sound effect of the audio stream to be played according to the instance of sound effect, and plays the audio stream to be played.

It can be seen that after receiving the playing control instruction for the audio stream to be played from the mobile terminal, the audio output device configures the sound effect of the audio stream to be played by virtue of the created instance of sound effect and plays the audio stream to be played, thereby avoiding a playing time delay and non-fluency caused by occupation of a kernel resource of the audio output device for sound effect configuration, facilitating to improve playing fluency of the audio output device and improving the user experience.

The audio output device 320 is configured to acquire the pre-configuration instruction sent by the mobile terminal and create an instance of sound effect for an audio stream to be played according to the reference parameter of sound effect, wherein the instance of sound effect may be configured to configure the audio stream to be played.
